Wolverhampton take on the visitors Aston Villa in the round 31 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, April 2nd at Molineux Stadium (Wolverhampton).
The Wolves have already proven that last season was something of a respite. Having drawn the right conclusions, and beautifully said goodbye to the manager who raised the project to a new level, Nuno Espirito Santo, the club was able to successfully "reset". And not much changed in essence: again the Portuguese coach, only this time Bruno Lage, again their football is primarily focused on defensive line. But, as it was in 2019 and 2020, it turns out to fight for 7th place. Although not everything is smooth, even before the pause for matches, the Wolves, who had previously beaten Watford and Everton, managed to lose to Leeds. Although after the 1st half they led by 2 goals. How did such a team concede three times in half an hour, with a decisive goal in the 91st minute?!

Villans were still under the leadership of Dean Smith at the beginning of this season. But he did not really cope with the task of "how to play without Grealish?" Without waiting for a complete failure, the management of the Birmingham club changed this manager to Steven Gerrard in the autumn. Gerrard had built solid team in Glasgow and he proved he can be good in the Premier League. The ex-Liverpool midfielder made rapid progress with his new team, including Coutinho to the squad in January, eventually lifting the team to the top half of the standings. But there are actually no chances to rise above the current 9th position, the gap is 10 points. And it seems that this is already a verdict - not in vain in March there were 2 defeats in a row. On the other hand, they lost to West Ham and Arsenal, maybe there will be a brighter result with easier opponents?
Villa took four points in head-to-head with the Wolves last season but the reverse fixture earlier this season ended with 3-4 win of Bruno’s men. Wolverhampton is a pragmatic team but they haven’t been solid defensively in recent matches and we can expect quite a number of goals in this match.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 goals scored.
